Food tour: (6-10 guests) The Culinary Experience: Immerse yourself in the art of Greek cooking while enjoying a luxurious stay on the stunning island of Mykonos. Spend 3 or 7 nights in a dream villa overlooking the Aegean Sea, where a top Greek cook and food writer will guide you through hands-on lessons. Learn to create traditional and modern dishes, from vegetarian delights to fresh fish and succulent meats, using simple, healthy ingredients. Dishes you'll learn to cook include the perfect moussaka, whole baked fish, succulent lamb chops, crispy spanakopita, Sifnos revithada, baklava, and a variety of dips, pies, and seasonal salads. Perfect for all skill levels, this culinary retreat combines relaxation, exceptional flavors, and the joy of hosting Greek-style gatherings. Unwind, cook, and savor the best of Greece in an unforgettable setting. During this culinary experience that includes a 3 or 7-night stay, you’ll visit a traditional dairy producer to learn the art of making homemade cheese and preparing Mykonos' signature onion pie. Angelina also includes an incredible day trip aboard a traditional wooden boat to the ancient island of Delos. Along the way, you’ll stop for swimming and snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters, followed by a delightful meal served onboard as you sail into the iconic Greek sunset, sipping wine and soaking in the magic of the Aegean Sea.

Daily cleaning, brunch preparation, and a selection of fine Greek wines make your stay as indulgent as it is inspiring.
